Topic: Murano....but maybe not? (Read 840 times)

Hi,This item (190180080086) just sold on ebay, and I was a bidder I did not want to ask earlier. It is advertised as Murano which I can sort of accept but the red canes done look like Murano to me; as for the green cane towards the centre!Am I missing the obvious or what is it with this weight?Kind regards,KarelMps: once again I realise what a biginner I am when I see these type of weights!

Thanks!Was the Boh. reference to Bohemian or a typo for "both"? I am sure(ish) it is not Bohemian but Bacarat sounds right...will hit the books and see what I find.What intrested me was the lumped canes that dont look like complex canes as much as they look like a bunch of canes put together (I know this is in esence the same thing!) but Murano canes have a tendancy to be a clump of canes that have not been stretched to make a complex cane but just left at the same size. Thats why i could sort of fall for the Murano attribution except for the two other canes mentioned in the first post.
